WASBO University: Wisconsin School Governance & History
This course explores how school districts really work, from their constitutional roots to current day mission and operations. Learn the important milestones in the history of Wisconsin public schools, from their frontier origins, through the consolidation era following WWII, the rise of organized labor, the impact of Act 10, and today’s voucher movement. We’ll discuss the roles and responsibilities of the school board, superintendent, business manager and others, with an emphasis on school funding and operations, budgets, and referenda.
